Hold on to your fascinators, it could be a snarky ride! It's Royal Wedding Day! Wheeee!

[SHARPIE]

Beatrice has the giggles as do a lot of the congregation.

 

[Lorac]

OMG - every time I think he is winding down he starts up again!!!

 

[misskarne]

When he said "we gotta get y'all married" I thought "Yay we done" but nope.

sigh.

EDIT: Not a huge Camilla fan but her face just then is my mood.

 

[screech]

Someone is definitely going to release a song soon called "When Love Is The Way"

Lol at Eugenie and Beatrice smirking and trying to hold back the laughter

 

[RoseRed]

Now we're talking about science and fire...

 

[avivadawn]

I’m really surprised that this guy is the head bishop of the Episcopal Church America because his preaching style is so different.

“We gotta get y’all married!”

 

[Lorac]

OK - this is just getting silly now!!! I wonder if Meghan is regretting this choice!!!

 

[RoseRed]

The word TWEET was part of the Royal Wedding. Wow.

 

[skatefan]

ALL RIGHT LOVE IS THE WAY WE GET IT.

Probably not the right time for this to get a bit political, either.

Agree
- this is a wedding first and foremost

 

[Lynn226]

He sounds fundamentalist.

 

[TOADS]

I hope he doesn’t break into the Arthur Brown song, “Fire”.

 

[misskarne]

The choirboys looked like on the verge of losing it.

This is getting ridiculous. Are all religious weddings this long!?

 

[avivadawn]

Make it stop!!!!!!!!

 

[misskarne]

Oh he's done thank god.

 

[Sylvia]

He ends with a reference to "... Dr. [Martin Luther] King..."

Karen Gibson and The Kingdom Choir will sing ‘Stand by me’ from the
West End of The Chapel.
...
Jerry Leiber (1933–2011) Ben E. King (1938–2015) and Mike Stroller (b. 1933)
arr. by Mark Delisser (b. 1973)

To be followed by The Vows.

Bishop Curry is giving a sermon, folks. Especially compared to some I've set through in some church wedding services, this is fairly short.

 

[aftershocks]

This is so awful. Man, this is so NOT about you! I get its a sermon, and they want that down home flavor, but his delivery I find a bit OTT for a wedding.

His message about love is very important, but it was loud and repetitive rather than eloquent, appropriate to the moment and poignant. The message being about the couple themselves is lost! The congregation are awkwardly laughing rather than reflecting and receiving inspiration.

 

[mattiecat13]

Thank god he finally shut up.

 

[avivadawn]

This choir sounds wonderful.

I get it's a sermon but I still feel like he could have conveyed the same message in about a quarter of the words.

Yes, but Anglican sermons tend to be short.

 

[SHARPIE]

This version of "Stand By Me" ???

 

[misskarne]

Oh lovely version of Stand By Me.

 

[Simone411]

Totally love Stand By Me. Very appropriate for them.

 

[rfisher]

Oh yes. Much longer. I love that Meaghan's culture and her mother's are part of her wedding.

 

[Lorac]

Lovely version of 'Stand by Me'!!

 

[misskarne]

Here we go! Ring time!

 

[ilovepaydays]

This wedding is a church service. They are only at around the 30 minutes at this point. Long if is it goes past an hour and a half.

 

[allezfred]

I thought you weren't watching

It’s everywhere! Can’t avoid it. It’s like Ebola.

Prince Harry and Ms. Meghan Markle have chosen Cleave and Company to make their Wedding rings.

Ms. Markle's ring has been fashioned from a piece of Welsh Gold, gifted by Her Majesty The Queen.

Prince Harry's ring will be a Platinum Band with a textured finish. Both rings were crafted in the Cleave workshop.

The rings will be carried to St George's Chapel on the day of the Wedding by The Duke of Cambridge, in his capacity as Best Man.
